ASAGI (born August 29th 1974 in Noshiro, Akita) is a Japanese singer-songwriter, most known for being the leader of the rock-metal band D (18). He used to run his own record label GOD CHILD RECORDS until 2008. Raised in the Akita prefecture, ASAGI moved to Yokohama after graduating senior high school and started band activities with Balsamic besides working at a restaurant. In 1997 Balsamic disbanded, and few months later ASAGI became founding member of JE*REVIENS. After JE*REVIENS disbanded in late 2000, ASAGI took a short break from the music scene and eventually came back in Summer 2001 as the second vocalist of the Matina band Syndrome (12), replacing former vocalist Tatsuya. In the meantime he had also provided vocals for 胡蝶, solo project of Syndrome's drummer 紫音. In late 2002 Syndrome dibanded due to health problems of the band leader KISAKI and contrast between him and ASAGI. In March 2003 former Syndrome members ASAGI, Ruiza and Sin (26) formed a new band called D (18). In 2006 ASAGI had a short solo career releasing a single titled Corvinus. Since then he is also occasionally working as a designer and perfumer for his own brand Rosen Kranz.
